I will be upgrading from 4.1.x to 5.1.x sometime in the next 30 days or so. I would like to get the following information please:
What are the RECOMMENDED versions of -
- MySQL
- PHP
- PHPMySQL
I will be providing the distro and version of the Linux running my server shortly, and will want to know the recommended version for that distro as well.
Additionally, I would like to know what "supporting" software (and associated versions) are recommended in order to maximize speed and functionality of this vB release. (Things like Capcha, a PHP compiler, etc)
I have a truly huge database (in excess of 30 GB) and would like to go to natural text search, and need to know that particulars associated with that. For example:
- Is it even recommended for a site this large?
- What is the exact procedure to activate it?
- Is there additional software that needs to be installed? If so, what is it and what versions?
- Will I need to keep my forum closed while I change over? How long might I expect to keep it closed? (Server is fully stuffed Dell R610, w/dual quad code CPUs and 30 GB RAM)
Is there anything else that I've overlooked? If so, what?
Thanks a million!
